Welcome to Duke, Antonio Vrankovic!

Well, he isn't a PG, but he is coming to Duke nonetheless, per his Twitter feed.

6'11" and 265. 247 Sports says he is a 3 star center.

Good size to be a low post banger. Coach K and company will go to work honing his skills. This is welcome news for a team in need of scholarship players.

With Jeter, Marshall, and Amile in front of him, I'm guessing he will be seeing lots of bench time next season. That's not a bad thing; at least at being only three stars we won't be wondering if he'll have transfer thoughts over lack of playing time. Use the season as an opportunity to grow (literally and figuratively) and be ready to make an impact in 2016.

The quote I read from him said he would be in summer school in July and he and the coaches would make decisions later about whether or not he would redshirt. So it doesn't sound like he has any illusions about playing time next year. I am guessing he is a four or five year kind of guy, which we can certainly use. :9f:
